Creating a DIY self-serve candy station at your wedding reception party is an easy and creative alternative to traditional candy wedding favors.
Jordan almonds wrapped in organza or tulle and tied with ribbon have long been the traditional wedding favor choice for many brides and grooms. TheKnot.com explains the cultural significance for these sugarcoated candies. While this tradition will always be popular, wedding candy buffet bars are becoming the colorful, interactive, and completely customizable candy favor choice for many brides.
Creating your own candy table at your wedding is easy and affordable, and requires only a few supplies. From the candy buffet jars to the favor bags to the tasty candy itself, we outline the 5 steps it takes to create your own colorful and personalized candy bar dream.
Step 1 – Choose Your Candy & Colors
This is the most fun part! First think about what colors you want to have.
A couple planning their wedding will choose colors that match the rest of their wedding. Jelly beans and M&M’s both come in a rainbow of colors. Don’t forget licorice, gum drops, chocolates, gummy bears, and taffy which come in many flavors. Online retailers often organize their candy by color making it easy to find choices that will work with your wedding colors.
Step 2 – Buy Glass Jars & Candy Scoops
Create a decorative candy buffet with glass jars
Big glass jars work best to show off your colorful candy. Similar to the jars used at old-fashioned bulk candy stores, these often have removable lids to keep the candy fresh. You may want to remove and store the lids right before the guests start to fill their bags up!
Glass flower vases and trifle bowls also work nicely. Don’t forget the scoops (or tongs, depending on what kind of candy it is). Scoops discourage guests from dipping their hands directly into the jars. Use one scoop per candy jar.
Step 3 – Hand Write Labels
Handwritten labels are elegant and help identify what is inside the jars. Choose plain labels or ones with a pretty border that ties in with your wedding theme. If you have messy handwriting, go ahead and print labels on your home inkjet printer or ask a friend to write them for you.
Clear cello bags are perfect for guests to fill up and take their candy home.
Step 4 – Buy Favor Bags
Just like clear glass jars work best for displaying the candy, clear cello bags work best for filling. Don’t forget twist ties or pre-cut ribbon so guests can tie their goodie bags shut!
Step 5 – Set Up Your Candy Bar Buffet
Now that you have your candy fill, labeled jars, scoops and bags, you are ready to set everything up! Cover your candy table with a table cloth and add bunting to the front of the table, if desired. A vase of flowers also looks nice amongst the jars of delicious sweets.
On your big day, your guests will love filling their bags with their favorite candy, and you’ll love knowing how easy it was to create!

Send guests home with a photo memento of their special Valentine’s Day at your restaurant, cruise ship, gala, party or event.
With Valentine’s Day just a month away, it’s time to make final plans for your event. Whether you are planning a romantic valentines dinner at your restaurant, a special hotel weekend package or taking your event to the ocean, river or lake for a valentine dinner cruise, the right planning will make your valentine’s event one that couples will want to return to year after year.
Event photography is often a part of special events and are a terrific way for your guests to leave with something tangible to remember their experience. All you need are a photographer, on-site printer or instant film camera and photo event folders.
Sell or give away the photos at the end of the event. It can be a money-making opportunity, or a complimentary gift to say thanks.
Here are a few different types of Valentine’s Day events happening across the country next month.
Valentine’s Day Events On The Water
From romantic night cruises to family brunches, turning “love boats” are a great way to celebrate. Here are some options across the country:

With the family together, Thanksgiving is the perfect day to cross “take family holiday photo” off your holiday to-do list.
Once we turn the calendar to December, much of our free time is spent Christmas shopping, wrapping presents, decorating, and baking cookies for those countless cookie swaps. Don’t forget all of the holiday party obligations and white elephant gift exchanges! With the flurry of activity in the month of December, it’s no surprise that many families make Thanksgiving their annual family photo day.
Why you should take family Christmas card pictures at Thanksgiving
Everyone is together. Siblings, parents, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents… the holidays are the best time to gather everyone for a big family photo op.
Everyone is usually dressed a bit nicer. There typically aren’t too many jeans and t-shirts at Thanksgiving dinner.
Not too hot, not too cold for outdoor pictures. This does depend on your climate, but the weather is usually perfect for snapping a few outdoor shots with the fall leaves for a perfectly autumn family photo.
Lots of candid photo ops. If you’re looking to send out humorous family Christmas photo cards, hang out in the kitchen while food is being prepped, watch the kids play games, or just keep your camera poised and ready during dinner when talk is cheerful and spirits are high.
It’s often the silly, seemingly random moments that create the most memorable images for your holiday photo cards.
How to Make Thanksgiving your Annual Family Photo Day
There are two ways to take the perfect family picture for your Christmas cards.
First, you can hire a professional photographer. Book an appointment with a family photographer for sometime at the end of November—but call them earlier in the month, or even in October, as their year-end schedules fill up fast! Many photographers will come to your home or an outdoor setting (like a park). This makes your photos a personal reflection of your family’s style. If you like the polished look of studio style photography, go to a portrait studio where they have many options for backdrops and seasonal props.
If you are more of a DIY-type, shoot your own photos with a tripod. Just set the camera timer, and go! This method works for a lot of people. Taking family Christmas card pictures this way can take some time to get your pose just right, so it might not be the best option for families with young children or pets. If you fall into that category, consider asking a friend or family member to take the picture.
Sometimes a family portrait is as simple as just finding a nice place for everyone to sit! Consider the front steps or standing in front of a landscaped or natural area for your Thanksgiving family portrait.
Here are 5 Quick Tips for the Perfect Christmas Card Photo
1. Be you. Sound simple? It can be, but when the camera is ready, some people will freeze up. To get around this, ask a friend or extended family member to quietly snap some candid photos while you and your family are playing in the leaves, telling stories, or even baking cookies.
Playful moments like this—playing in the leaves—are a fun memory to share for your family photo Christmas cards.
2. Don’t match outfits too closely. Don’t put everyone in a solid navy blue shirt with khakis. Instead, give a color palette as inspiration. That way, a solid navy blue top will go nicely with a wine-colored plaid top and a mustard sweater. Kate L. Photography has some excellent advice on how to choose outfits for your family photos.
3. Include the family dog or cat. Sometimes having an animal in the photo will make everyone more at ease. It can also make for some really cute images!
4. Don’t photograph yourself. Not feeling photogenic? Photograph something that your family holds near and dear to their hearts. Maybe it’s the family farm, a picture of some of your kid’s artwork, or maybe just the cat, dog, or even goldfish. Remember, with family Christmas cards, it really is the thought behind it.
5. Make it generational. Your extended family will love seeing the family lineage, from the oldest member to the youngest. It is sure to evoke fond memories, and it’s a great gift to give the youngest members of your family.
Use your Thanksgiving picture as your Christmas card this year. Pictured: Natural Flax Photo Insert Card (with custom imprint in black foil and handwritten message)
Turn your Family Photo into a Christmas Photo Card
Once you have the perfect picture, why not use it as your Christmas card? Personalized photo greeting cards are popular because they are affordable and easy to create. Simply order some prints, and slide your photos into photo insert cards.
Why photo insert cards work so well as Christmas Family Photo Cards
You have plenty of color options to choose from, including white, black, red, and forest green. We also have Christmas photo insert cards.
This card that holds your 4″x 6″ photo can also double as a cheap 5″ x 7″ photo frame mat.
These photo frame cards are acid free and archival-quality, making them a safe way to store your prints.
Unlike cheap photo frame cards from craft stores, our window borders are glued down so the window frame edges don’t pucker. Tight window borders mean your photograph won’t slide around—or worse, slide out.
If you don’t want to send a card with your family photo inserted in the frame, you can design your own custom printed Christmas photo cards. If you need help designing it, we can help! Just call us at (800) 346-3063 or send us an email.
Whichever Christmas photo card style you choose, Christmas greeting cards made from your Thanksgiving family photo day are a fun, creative way to say, “Merry Christmas!”
So go on, get out and take that perfect (or imperfect!) family photo this Thanksgiving. You’ll have fun taking it, and the memories you’ll make are sure to last a long time.
Make the most of your Santa photo events with custom paper picture frames.
The Christmas season seems to start earlier each year, and it’s easy to understand why. Christmas is a big part of our culture and a holiday that many people look forward to.
Every November Santa cheerfully shows up at malls, stores, town squares, tree lighting ceremonies, and holiday parties. He even shows up at restaurants for special “Breakfast with Santa” events (or even dinner with Santa!), which attract the whole family for a morning of fun, food, and festivities.
All of these Santa events share one thing in common: photos.
It is no surprise that many people make it a family tradition to visit Mr. Claus and his elves for their holiday picture. His image is iconic, and having that special photo of the kids on Santa’s lap is priceless.
These events draw hundreds, even thousands of people to businesses nationwide, making this an excellent opportunity to connect with customers, neighbors, and friends during the holiday season.
Some businesses offer the holiday photos as a complimentary service to their customers. Other venues may charge for a printed photo, often times donating the proceeds to a local food pantry or charity in the spirit of the season. In fact, photos with Santa have become a popular fundraiser activity for many organizations.
So if you’re taking pictures with Santa at your event, we have some inexpensive Christmas giveaway ideas for you.
Protect Your Photos with Santa Visit Photo Holders
Presenting photos with Santa in an inexpensive paper or cardboard photo frame protects the photos from fingerprints and accidental rips. It’s also a great way to market your business or event because you can personalize them with your event info or company logo, making these Santa picture souvenirs not just practical for holding event photos, but also effective marketing tools.
There are three main styles of card stock Santa visit photo holders.
Photo frame Christmas greeting cards make an instant, stylish frame for your 4×6 prints. Just slide your photo under the window frame border—no glue or tape needed!
Archival-quality and acid-free, your photographs are protected and can be used in scrapbooks and photo albums. These Christmas photo cards can even be inserted into a traditional 5″ x 7″ picture frame. The paper border acts as an instant mat for your photo.
This candy cane photo insert card is perfect for handing out your pictures with Santa. The 5″ x 7″ card holds one 4″ x 6″ photo.
Paper Photo Folders
Santa photo folders hold your picture on the inside, and the cover protects the print from dust, fingerprints, and creases.
Photo folders are especially nice when the customer is going to be carrying the photo home, as photo folders protect their pictures better than photo insert cards might. These Santa photo folders also stand up on a desk for easy display.
Studio Style has dozens of Christmas photo folder designs to choose from. From a jolly Santa to yummy peppermint candies, we’re sure you can find a design to coordinate with your event décor.
But we have a little something extra for you: you can add your own personalization to these folders. We can print or foil stamp your company logo, event branding, or special message.
Designer tip: Are you sponsoring a Santa visit event? Consider ordering printed Christmas photo folders. Personalization on these designs is free, and we can add your logo to the back cover if the front cover is filled with the event branding.
These look much like your traditional picture frame, but are made of heavy paperstock, smooth cardstock, sturdy cardboard, or thick mat board. All of our photo frames has some sort of easel back so you can easily display your event photos on your desk, mantel, or end table.
All of our frames are available blank. Want something unique to your event? Add your Santa visit event details or logo in beautiful metallic foil. Or, if you need to go all-out with your event branding, we have full-color, custom printed paper picture frames.
Paper photo frames make an affordable yet upscale giveaway option for the holiday season. We even have Instax, Instax Mini, Instax Square, and Polaroid frames for your Christmas event.
Our Grandeur photo frames are envelope-style frames that would work perfectly for your Santa event photos. The flaps close shut to protect the photo until it is displayed at home or on a desk at work.
Do I need Santa visit photo holders?
If you’re hiring an event photographer or printing pictures onsite, your guests will appreciate having something to get their photos home in. Here’s why:
Sliding an event photo into a paper frame or folder creates an instant photo souvenir. With your logo or event name on it, this photo holder also becomes a reminder of your business or event. What a great promotional product giveaway for the holiday season!
Photo folders protect from fingerprints, dust, food smudges… and they fit in a large purse. Whether you’re running the photo booth or are an event photographer printing photos onsite, give event guests an easy way to get their photos safely home.
We’ve made Santa photo frames for these types of events:
School Events: PTOs often use a Fuji Instax camera at school events. If you have one, check out our paper frames for Instax Wide, Instax Square, and Instax Mini prints.
Pet Pictures
Churches
Park District holiday events
Open Houses for businesses or communities
Studio photography: Mini sessions are popular around the holidays

Share the happiness and joy of your wedding day with Christmas photo cards.
The holiday season is a time for sharing memories with friends and family. While many people choose to share the highlights of their year with a traditional holiday letter, a picture is worth a thousand words! Chances are that your wedding day was one of the major highlights of your year, and likely a day where you both looked your best. Why not use one of your favorite wedding photos as a holiday card this year?
Hey newlyweds! Use your wedding photo on custom printed holiday photo cards, and fall in love with the holiday season all over again. You can also put your engagement photos on a Christmas card.
Photo cards also double as a great way to get a photo out to everyone that asked for one. And for those greeting card recipients who didn’t attend your wedding, its a way for them to feel like they were there.
But we got married last March! Is it still okay to use our wedding picture for our holiday card?
Absolutely! As long as you were married within the last year, it is perfectly acceptable to share your wedding photo during the holiday season. After all it was a big event for the year, and Christmas is a time to reflect on those joys.
Can I use the photos from our wedding photographer?
Remember to check with your photographer to make sure you have the rights to reproduce their photo onto cards. If you purchased digital copies of the photos, check to see if the photographer included a digital print release.
Having a digital print release from your wedding photographer means you can have your wedding pictures printed anywhere. Just provide the print release when ordering your photos. In most instances, you just email the print release to customer service and they will keep it on file in case you order more prints.
Photo print centers require these releases if using professional images or copyrighted graphics—Studio Style also requires a digital print release if you choose custom printed Christmas photo cards. Not sure if you need a digital print release to order photos? Just ask your photographer.
How to use printed wedding photos in Christmas cards
If you received printed photos instead of the digital copies, you can always take 4″ x 6″ prints that you purchased from your photographer and slide them into photo frame style cards. It’s an easy DIY way to create instant photo cards! Studio Style offers photo insert christmas cards and custom printed holiday photo cards.
A pocket-style photo insert card makes it easy to remove the picture and frame it long after the holiday season is over.
Sending a custom wedding photo Christmas card is a unique and personal way to keep in touch this holiday season. With many designs to choose from, we’re sure you’ll find one that fits your style.
We can help you find the best Christmas photo card
If you need help finding the best Christmas photo card for your wedding picture, Studio Style is here to help. Our graphic designers can either help you find the best Christmas card design for your newlywed picture—or we’ll design it for you. Call us at (800) 346-3063 or send us an email with your design ideas. We’re here to help!
Whether you’re hosting a quaint gathering or a town festival, autumn dinner party favors are perfect fall giveaways.
Fall is a sensational time for hosting a gathering for friends and family. The changing leaves and crisp weather can inspire fantastic menus like butternut squash ravioli, roasted sweet potatoes, cranberry spinach walnut salad, and pumpkin pie.
All that time cleaning house and planning the menu, it’s important not to forget your table-scape. Creating a warm and welcoming dinner table for your fall parties is simple. Choose linens in autumnal colors; think rust, goldenrod, browns, and greens. For a rustic look, fill a bowl with apples, mini pumpkins, and gourds in all shapes and sizes.
Lighting is important and—when chosen properly—will really make your dinner shine. For an outdoor dinner, drape cafe string lights over tree branches or a pergola. Inside, candles add warmth to your table. While white candles are a classic table setting option, colored candles add festive fall flair. As delicious as some candle fragrances smell, stick to unscented. The added fragrance could interfere with your delicious dinner, and some guests might have sensitive allergies.
Autumn Dinner Party Favor Idea: Flower Bulbs
The table is set, the decorations hung, and the menu just right, so let’s plan those guest favors. Why not give an eco-friendly gift, like flower bulbs? Since fall is the best time to plant bulbs, a goodie bag of flower bulbs is an excellent choice for your autumn dinner party favors.
Dinner party favors work as place cards to let your guests know where to sit, and they’re a festive table setting
While bulbs as party favors are perfect for outdoor or garden-themed parties, they work for any fall gathering. Wrap a handful of flower bulbs (tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, crocus, and allium are popular choices) in a clear cello bag, fabric swatch, or small burlap bag. Tie off with raffia, twine, or pretty fall-colored ribbon.
If you want to really personalize your autumn dinner party favors, just handwrite each guests’ name on a homemade gift tag. A simple colorful piece of scrapbook paper with a handwritten name or message looks charming and makes the gift personalized. You might consider writing bulb planting instructions on the back of the tag. Be sure to include the type of flower and its color, planting depth, bulb spacing, and what month to plant.
One last tip: remind guests to plant their bulbs before the snow starts. Bulbs may not grow if kept in a closed bag over winter and planted in the spring.
Spring Blooming Bulb Planting Chart
Zones 2-3 – Plant in September
Zones 4-5 – Plant in October
Zones 6-7 – Plant in November
Zone 8 – Plant in December
For larger dinner party gifts, nestle the bulbs in a tissue lined paper tray.
Giving bulbs as autumn dinner party favors is a kind gesture and will provide fond memories next spring when the flowers bloom. Happy fall!
Take a picture of your little pumpkin for spooktacular Halloween photo insert cards or party invitations that will put the TREAT into trick or treat!
Autumn is a great time taking pictures of kids, pets, or the whole family. The annual trip to the pumpkin patch (and subsequent carving party), a weekend of raking leaves, and of course dressing up in costume for Halloween all make for memorable photo opportunities.
Halloween photo greeting cards are the perfect way to share those precious photos with family and friends.
While most photo card enthusiasts traditionally send their personalized greeting cards out at Christmas or to announce the birth of their child, Halloween is an unexpected—and fun—time of year to send out special fall-themed greeting cards to friends and family.
Never made your own Halloween greeting cards before? We’re here to help with photo tips (like when to take the pictures) and what to write in the card (we’ve included plenty of puns because puns are fun). So grab a slice of apple pie, pour a cup of pumpkin spice latte, cozy up, and learn how easy it is to create one-of-a-kind Halloween photo insert cards.
Where to take pictures for your Halloween photo insert cards
Here are some fun fall photo ideas for your personalized Halloween picture cards:
Halloween Party
School Costume Parade
Costume Contest
Apple Orchard
Pumpkin Patch
Pumpkin Carving
Halloween Wedding
Halloween Parade
Haunted House
Hay Ride
Raking Leaves – be sure to get an action shot jumping in the leaves!
Use a plain black photo holder card to make your Halloween picture really stand out. Just slide your 4″ x 6″ photo in—no glue or tape needed!
Gelly Pens (especially metallic) work great on darker colored cardstock. Use a bronze, copper, or pumpkin-orange pen to stay with the Halloween theme.
Rubber stamps are an easy way to accent your card with spooky imagery. Choose a lighter color cardstock for most stamp inks, or use a highly pigmented metallic ink to stamp on darker papers.
Decorate with washi tape! Add some pizazz to the window border frame on our photo insert cards with some Halloween-themed washi tape.
What to write in Halloween cards
Halloween is one of those holidays where you can get away with puns in your greeting, message, and sign-off. Not that you have to, but may as well get away with it when you can, right? Here are some Halloween card messages and wishes for you to use:
Intros and greetings:
Hello, boils and ghouls! (The perfect intro for fans of the classic Tales from the Crypt).
Ghoulish greetings
Howl-0!
To the coolest ghoul I know
Ghostly greetings
Trick or sweets!
Messages for Halloween greeting cards:

Hey Polaroid fans! Fuji has an instant camera—and you won’t have to go on a treasure hunt to find film.
In 2008, Polaroid announced that it’s iconic Polaroid instant camera and film—the one that made them famous—was being discontinued.
Polaroid fans across the globe balked at this news and quickly formed groups live Save Polaroid in a grassroots effort to try to save their beloved camera.
Born out of this movement was The Impossible Project, which did the impossible by creating a film compatible with most of the old Polaroids out there. If you were lucky enough to find it in stock, the high cost was prohibitive to all but the most die-hard fans. Equally pricey Polaroid film was being auctioned on eBay if one was willing to pay.
UPDATE: In 2017, Polaroid Originals was launched, taking the place of The Impossible Project. They create two new cameras: the OneStep+ and the OneStep 2. The OneStep was discontinued in 2020, and Polaroid has since launched the Now, Now+, and Go cameras, as well as offering refurbished 600 cameras from the 80s, 90s, and 00s.
But then Fuji came into the U.S. spotlight with its Instax camera. With its rounded toy-like body, point-and-click ease, and instantaneous photos, it quickly became an acceptable replacement for most Polaroid users.
Since the release of the Fuji Instax 200 camera, Fuji has introduced even more models and print sizes: Instax 210, Instax 300, Mini 9 ( in lots of colors!), Mini 70, and the newest addition to their line, the Square SQ6.
The Fuji Instax is a popular choice for parties, events, and promotions if the event organizers are looking for a relatively inexpensive and easy photo solution.
Three quick tips on using a Fujifilm Instax Camera
Five simple reasons people love the Fuji Instax Film Camera
Nostalgia. Ever since American inventor Edwin Land invented the instant camera in 1947, people have been using instant photography to capture the memories in the lives.
Conversation starter. With everyone using their phones to take pictures, the sight of an Instax will more than likely draw some attention.
Instant gratification. Sure, phones and digital cameras can show you what your photos look like, but can they print them instantly, too?
Fun factor. Because who doesn’t love a toy-like camera?
Event friendly. Instant cameras are a popular choice for parties and events.
Where to buy: Instax cameras and film can be found at B&H Photo or Adorama.
Commemorative photos taken on graduation day add value to dog obedience programs.
Dog obedience school graduation is an important day for many pet owners. With all the hard work of training, the pay-off is huge. Owners gain confidence in their dog’s behavior and a new bond and trust is formed between the two.
Pet owners love photos of their furry companions, and a graduation day photograph is a great way to celebrate their dog’s achievement.
If you’re planning on presenting the graduation certificate and photo side-by-side to give to the student as a memento, the opportunities are endless. Another common photo idea is to have the owner hold the graduation diploma and pose next to their pet. Either choice makes an excellent photo memory that can be displayed as a reminder of their achievement.
We love dogs & we love framing dog portraits
At Studio Style, we love dogs! And we love helping people share their love and appreciation for their dogs. Whether you need your dog’s graduation photos framed, or you need some giveaways at the animal shelter or veterinary clinic, let’s talk photo folders.
